Open plan kitchens are hugely popular as they allow more natural light into the space. However, there’s a lot to be said for separate spaces, so the development of broken plan kitchens arrived. Steel windows incorporate the best of both worlds with internal partitions to break up the space, as well as external windows that maximise the area for light to enter the kitchen.
External
steel windows can be amalgamated into kitchen extensions as a replacement for
exterior walls. This is a perfect way to bring light into the home and create
the illusion of a larger room, blending the indoors with the outside. Steel
windows come in a range of sizes allowing for the option of large glass panes
spanning across the space of an external wall which will not obstruct the view
of the garden (as pictured).
To convert
existing open plan areas to the new trend of broken plan kitchen design, and
create separate spaces, the same W20 steel profiles
can be used as internal partitions bringing through the external design
aesthetics to the internal space. This can be a small partition
to separate an open pantry or utility room from the rest of the kitchen, or a
large partition can take the place of an interior non-weight bearing wall. It’s
the perfect solution to stylishly bring a broken plan scheme into the kitchen.
Steel partitions complement various interior schemes from mid-century modern designs to Scandi-styles with black steel windows reflecting a striking contrast to pale kitchen cabinetry.
Not only are steel windows incredibly stylish, the strong W20 steel sections allow for double glazed windows with thermally efficient units so kitchens can stay beautiful and warm.
